On this day in 2017, North Carolina defeated Gonzaga to earn its sixth #NationalChampionship in program history 🏆 #MarchMadness

Tommy Lloyd's halftime message with his Arizona team trailing Purdue by 7: "I said, guys, the coaching staff and I are gonna leave right now. You guys have got a few minutes to talk amongst yourselves and kinda figure this deal out and let's go kick their ass in the 2nd half." Arizona went on to outscore Purdue by 22 in the 2nd half to earn a spot in the Final Four.

Old school sportsmanship for the kids on Kansas walking by him who’s souls just got crushed

March Madness bracket if you picked each matchup by which School's Coaching staff scored more D1 points as players. (excluding graduate assistants) Does it take ballers to teach ballers?🤔

What is a movie that you've seen hundreds of times but still enjoy watching it?

Boys Basketball dominates Firelands 70-52 in the first round of the OHSAA postseason! The Lions were led by Wes Jacobson with a game-high 20 points, followed by Jack Sonby with a career-high of 19 points. NDCL advances to the district semi versus Canfield on 3/3. #WeAreNDCL

Victory belongs to the one who betrayed brilliantly. #TheTraitorsUS

Pat Riley says he wishes NBA coaches went back to suits and ties. “I think when fans look over at the sidelines they want to see someone that looks like a leader.”

@FastbreakHoops5 87-87 in today’s nba would be halftime unfortunately

Idk if the nba will ever reach this level again 🥲

@LeVeonBell Focus with will smith and Margot Robbie

I’m in desperate need of a movie where the plot twist so crazy that I will be thinking bout it weeks after watching the movie 👀

There is a crowded Division IV side in one bracket for #NHBasketball: @NDCLathletics @Perry_Pirates @WestGAthletics @BENE_ATHLETICS

A double-double for Wesley Jacobson and a game changing 3-pointer from Robby Lipowski in overtime propelled @NDCLathletics to the win #NHBasketball

Absolute pandemonium. One of the all-time Duke-UNC games. Seth Trimble.

The best offenses don’t run plays. They hunt advantages. That’s the lens the Illinois Fighting Illini men’s basketball uses every game. The first question isn’t what do we run?
It’s what’s our biggest strength and where is their biggest weakness? Everything flows from there. Illinois talks constantly about creating, attacking, and maintaining advantages. One action into the next. Spacing as a weapon. Letting individual skill shine when there’s a switch, and flowing right back into team advantage if the defense stays home. Shot selection is the backbone of it all. They simplify it: gold (layups), silver (threes), bronze (midrange) shots.
And then they practice different constraints so players feel it. For example: No-dribble possessions.
Scores only off cuts.
Offense made intentionally hard. Why? Because constraints teach players how many ways a possession can still produce a gold-medal shot. Early in the season, they were playing fast, but the shot quality wasn’t good enough. So they adjusted. Now they’re one of the slowest teams in the Big Ten. Not because slow is better.
Because it fits their strengths. The result? ~50% of shots from three ~43% at the rim ~7% midrange (mostly late clock) That’s not accident. That’s alignment. Takeaway:
Great offense isn’t about pace or volume, it’s about discipline, spacing, advantages, and repeatedly choosing the best shot available. Listen to coach @TyUnderwoodILL

Question: “Were you surprised by Novak Djokovic’s level?” Jannik Sinner: “No. He’s won 24 Grand Slams. He’s the greatest of all time and reminded us why. I’ll take this as a lesson.”
